Answers Please is a televised quiz bowl show that aired on WRGB in the Capital District (New York) from 1963 to 1989.
The show consisted of cycles of buzzer questions and team questions. Buzzer questions were asked until a team accumulated three correct answers, earning a team question. Team questions had four parts, one directed to each member of the team, to be answered in an overall time limit. After the team question, the count of accumulated correct answers reset and a new cycle began. Each question (either a buzzer question or team question part) was worth 5 points in the first half and 10 points in the second half.
The winning team returned for the following show, up to a maximum of three appearances.
